Well guys I've decided to do a little bit to give back to this community which has been so instrumental in the development of both my life and business.

I've decided to give away $600 in 1 on 1 phone coaching for free (information on my beliefs and style can be found here www.sq1coaching.com). Now when I decided to do this I had to figure out a way so that firstly the people receiving this where the most deserving and also to ensure that this people are fully invested in change... that they will take this seriously and be willing to do what it takes to achieve their goals. Normally I don't have to worry as much about investment simply because when people are paying between 40 and 75 dollars an hour for something they tend to take it seriously. However to ensure the same level of commitment I have decided on a simple contest. All that needs to be done is to write down a few things:

Your story; who are you, how did you get to where you are today, what have you already studied?
Your goals; who do you want to be?
How do you intend to reach these goals, what are you willing to do in order to accomplish them?
Why do you want to work with me?
And last, Why should I choose you, what makes you special and unique, why do you feel you'd be a good fit?

I will choose 2 people. These two students will receive 4 free sessions (Worth $300 each) which is a full month of coaching and assignments for free.

The contest will last for 11 days, it will be over on the 26th of June and I will announce the winners by the end of the day on the 28th.

This contest is open to all English speaking students however those located outside of the USA will need to setup a free SPAM account so that I can still hold our sessions verbally.

You may post questions or your entries in this post.

Good luck and I look forward to personally working with 2 of you.

Is there an age requirement? I ask this because I'm 20, and bars/ clubs aren't an option at the moment.

I highly suggest that if you are serious about improving your game and you qualify for this contest, that you take the time to enter it, because The Doctor is truly an amazing coach and he will definitely help you to improve more than you'd imagine possible. I've heard from several forum members and so far every single one has been thrilled with the results of their training.

Yes its open to anyone over 18.

Hey Doc,
This is a great gift that your giving back to the community! I guess I will submit my entry.

Your story; who are you, how did you get to where you are today, what have you already studied?
My name is marshal. I've discovered this community back one day by accident. I stumbled upon DYD e-book by David, and I started to read it. I was actually sorta looking for something to help me with girls. My story goes back to my days in grade school. I used to be a bit overweight. I was placed in the "gifted" class with all the smart kids and right off the bat, they hated me. I used to get picked on by NERDS! It was truly a killer on my confidence as well as my self esteem. I used to get followed home each day while being bullied by a bunch of people who got picked on by others themselves.
As I entered high school, I started to make a few friends. The experience that occurred in grade school really screwed with my head. The teasing and bullying made me a very shy introverted guy who didn't like to speak up or stand up for himself. As the years past by, I lost the weight and actually started to change. It's one of those "the ugly duckling" moments. I suddenly became attractive look wise, and I would always get girls to pay attention to me at first glance. The bullying really snowballed itself as it made me so afraid of confrontation and tense moments. The essentials to be successful with pick up is through experience, and in order to get experience you must break past your comfort zone. The whole grade school moment sort of snowballed itself. I became shy, I couldn't talk to girls or guys alike, then when I did talk to girls, I had very bad habits of being needy and weird. I even had a time where a friend of mine told me that I was really hot but also told me to shut up because the things I said were so weird and no one cared about them...

She actually told me that the moment I opened my mouth, I killed it. I actually had quite a few girls who told this to me in different ways throughout high school. I didn't have my first girl friend till I was 17. The only reason I had a girlfriend was because my friend set me up. I wasn't at all attracted to this girl, but I started to settle already, because I was "weird"

My first girlfriend wasn't until senior year of high school. We lasted 9 months where we got absolutely nowhere. I kept trying to get her to put out and yet it didn't work at all. To this day, I haven't had "any" A guy like me is naturally good looking, but what I can't get passed is feeling as if what I say sounds weird to people.

Yes that's right, at times I have this emotion in me that almost says "wow your weird" It makes me very self conscious of what I say to people. Even with pick up and all the help the community has provided, I still have that problem. Whenever I get the feeling of "wow your weird! STOP, try not to say anything weird" it tends to happen more and more.

I could even say at certain times in my life, I would blow sets just by opening my mouth. I used to get attention from girls because of my looks but I was too afraid to say anything, because I would be afraid of blowing them off by saying something "weird"

I have studied the basics of pick up, but I think some practice of NLP with pick up would greatly help me overcome my fear of holding conversations. The longer I hold them, the greater chance I have of this feeling coming to me. When it does, It's almost as if I drop a bomb. Since the summer has started in May, I have been going out to clubs and hitting the malls. Talking to girls. I don't seem to get very far because the "feeling" always seems to hit me. You can learn routines and you can learn to be social by going out, but this fear seems to really be holding me back from a potential "natural"

So far I have studied the basics of game. I know the structure of game and I'm not a big fan of using routines to talk. It sounds fake and I can't really pull it off. I have tried it, but it's just not for me. When I stop the routines, it sounds as if I change characters.




Your goals; who do you want to be?

My goal while being involved in this community is not only for girls alone, but for life. Many people assume naturally good lookers are confident. They assume hot girls are super confident, but I don't think that's the case at all. There's always a story. My goal is to become seen as a true gifted guy with women. I don't intend on trying to be a MPUA. It's not my goal. I would like to have an abundance of girls in my life. Most importantly, I would like to fix my problem with being scared to talk. Approach anxiety along with the added fear of saying something weird or stupid can really kill your success. It's not just with girls, but with life. I feel as if I missed countless opportunities that I could have had, had I stepped up and voiced out. I feel that had I been able to fix this problem, I could handle dealing with people on a business perspective as well. I can be more confident talking to guys as well and establish my place in a social circle. I am not going to be that omega male, who gets picked on and teased on by everyone. I refuse!

How do you intend to reach these goals, what are you willing to do in order to accomplish them?

I started studying NLP. I haven't gotten around to reading some of the books. I'm also not too sure where to go and where to start. I bought a few books that talked about the laws of attractions, but they were pretty vague. I need someone to instruct me on the right foot on where to start and where I need to head. I can walk the road by myself, I just need to be pointed in the right direction.


Why do you want to work with me?
And last, Why should I choose you, what makes you special and unique, why do you feel you'd be a good fit?

I want to work with you because even though I know that girls are attracted to me on my looks, I think that my mindset is really messed up. I have low self esteem from the time I used to get picked on. Why me? Why not someone else? Why was I the one to get bullied? I'm also a very willing person to learn to improve myself. I once though that going to the gym and getting super buff and lean would help me with women. I spent 2 years being a social hermit working out. Today, I realized it helps a bit just like good looks but to truly overcome my slump of not being confident, I'm going to need some help to break my mindset and change it. I believe that ultimately, that is what is holding me back. With this help, I can be set on the right path to overall be a more successful person of the worlds greatest wonder, LIFE!

My goal is to not only improve my game with women, It is for my entire life. I think I would make a great fit because I'm willing to work hard to jump over the fence that's holding me back. I truly believe that someone with a background in NLP will help me break past my sticking points. A student that is willing to learn, and looking to overall improve every aspect of his life is one that will work hard. That student just needs to be set on the right path.

Sorry about the long ass response. I was the first to reply, so I didn't know what to expect/write. Thank you for your time!

Your story; who are you, how did you get to where you are today, what have you already studied?

My past is irrelevant. What I want to share with you is after PMZ 09, I realized something was seriously wrong with myself. My mindset was fucked up, and my sense of self was dialed in a really fucked up way. I built an alter ego--my pick up artist side which studied all sorts of shit, bad and good. Then there was the same old David. Nothing changed, I just stuck all sorts of bandaids on my wounds. I had a I-am-a-victim-mindset, and I really was a value taker. I sought revenge and had a really fucked up attitude and psychology about myself.

Long story short, after I realized how fucked up my sense of self and my self perception was, I dropped everything. It was and still is a painful process to gut all these pick up techniques/theories/mindset out. I mean, it was really fucking painful and difficult. Had to face a lot of negative anchors in m life. But as a person, I have grown, and continue to grow. Later on, I was fortunate enough to find a really awesome mentor that lead and guided me in the right direction. He recently left for Southern Cali. Now--I face my fears, my success is up, and I am learning to love myself and be comfortable with who I am. This is my never-ending journey. In-field is where I learn my lessons now, not the internet. Oh yeah, I also like having my share of fun

Your goals; who do you want to be?

I want to be me. Free from negative social conditions, and my life, full of purpose.
I struggle with a lot of bad and fucked up negative anchors in my life. This is probably the hardest part for my own self-growth as oppose to the actual act of picking up chicks. I guess in terms of picking up, I want to remove all the mental obstacles in my head that inhibits myself from having my own self being a "10/10".

I want to be motivated, since self-motivation is an issue for me.
I want to have my life straightened out.

How do you intend to reach these goals, what are you willing to do in order to accomplish them?

Lately I'm a big believer that you grow the most when you throw yourself out there in uncomfortable situations. Face your fears, do it afraid, and go all out. Being stagnant is not growth. I want it bad enough, so I'll eventually get there--easy or hard way.

Why do you want to work with me?

Because I like you.


And last, Why should I choose you, what makes you special and unique, why do you feel you'd be a good fit?

A student/mentor relationship is probably one of the coolest one's out there. And from my last one, I ended being really awesome friends with him. I want to not only take, but give back value. You'd probably get a few kicks out of my nights out haha, and I really believe I am on the right track right now. Total 180 from who i was before. I don't want to go back or fall back into the same trap.

I'm addicted to facing my fears.

Wow man. David, that totally just blew my mind man. I'm so happy you came to that realisation! I know that you're a cool person, but you were definitely messing with some crazy shit before and I'm glad to see you make such an amazing improvement of your perspective on life and yourself!

Hell, if Doc won't give you some free teaching, then if you're interested I'd definitely be willing to coach you some.

Yeah dude, I really had to snap out of it. Beschatten is long gone dude.
I'm down for free coaching haha, I'm all about surrounding myself with people that will enforce positivity and help me achieve my goals.

_________________
I'm addicted to facing my fears.

My story:
I recently turned 21 and have been in the miltary for almost 3 years now, I havent studied any books or topics on the topic, but I have been going to clubs and bars since I was able to. I have had some luck, mostly average girls, but nothing consistent. Everything that I know on the subject so far, I learned from trial and error.
My goals:
I would like to be able to be more consistent with picking up women, and be more confident, so I would be able to meet more attractive women. More or less I want to be able to have more fun times.
How i will achieve my goals:
Really I am willing to try anything, and I am not afraid of striking out. As I said, I learned everything I currently know through trial and error, and even if it doesnt work, I enjoy trying new openers, and conversation topics. I have been going through the forums here, and looking for good books on being able to pick up women.

I want to work with you because you have a great reputation, and I am sure that I would be able to improve my game, and have more success after you teaching me about being a PUA.

You should chose me to work with you because although I already have some success, I am a quick learner, and I would follow through with the assignments and try anything you suggested, because I am already used to striking on pretty frequently.

Your story; who are you, how did you get to where you are today, what have you already studied?

My name is Bryan, and I am 20 years old. Growing up I had depression, was an angry kid, and was never really good with girls. I've only had 3 girlfriends, the last being about 5 years ago. What makes this interesting is that they picked me. Throughout middle school, and High school, I thought I needed a girl to be happy.Then a little over a year ago, I learned to think positive. It drastically changed my life! In a few short months, I went from depressed angry negative Nancy, to somewhat confident positive happy guy. I even beat all my negative emotions! It's like I'm a new person! Even with this new found outlook, I still had no idea how to meet girls. I realized that I didn't need a girl to be happy. Now I just wanted to start dating girls so I don't get stuck with the first girl that comes along (Which is what I see happen to my friends all the time) After much frustration, I went on youtube, and started doing searches on meeting girls. Eventually I came across a few videos of day game approaches. I ate that stuff up. However, I still had much approach anxiety. My friend had "The Game", and let me borrow it. (Just finished it 2 days ago) Then I signed up here about a week ago. Since February, I have watched videos and read tips. I have approached a bit, and got a few numbers, however very few returned my calls. I did land 1 date!

Your goals; who do you want to be?

I do animation, and I will make short films with positive messages, to influence viewers to do their part in making this world a paradise. All the greed I see in the world sickens me, and I will do my part in putting an end to it.

When it comes to pickup, I am not looking for sex (in fact I myself am waiting till marriage. It's God's way, and I intend to follow it) Like I said in my story, I want to date around and see what the world has to offer, that way if I have a girlfriend, I wont be scared to leave in fear of being alone. If she's not that great, I will have the balls to leave her and find someone better.

How do you intend to reach these goals, what are you willing to do in order to accomplish them?

I'm willing to try just about anything. When I go out, I try to approach girls. I still have allot of AA, but it's fading. (I have actually come to enjoy that uneasy feeling in my chest!) I see every approach as a win win situation. If it goes good, then all right! If I crash and burn, it’s something I can laugh at later, and figure out what I did wrong, and fix it.

Why do you want to work with me?

I want to work with you because I feel that with the right guidance I will be unstoppable. I've gone from hating live, to loving it. Then, from literally having no idea how to meet girls, to actually approaching once in a while. I have the momentum, and I know I'm on the right track.

And last, why should I choose you, what makes you special and unique, why do you feel you'd be a good fit?

I break all stereotypes. I am genuinely not looking for sex. I actually care about people, not money, and my goals are to make the world a better place. You should pick me because I have I have the momentum, and the drive to do what needs to get done.

Hello, Doctor.
My name is Evgeniy.19 years old. Born in Russia, live in London since May 2004. Probably, about 2 years ago i first heard about pickup game, and only recently, 1 month ago I started to actually do something. I used to be very shy AFC, but one year ago I made a decision to apply for job in sales and everything started to improve. About the same time I read "The game" which just shocked me, i felt like my eyes are opening again. Also I read DeAngelo and parts of Mystery's works. So, as I told you already, about 1 month ago I started to do something about my AFC-ing. The exact things i have done were just going out, saying "hi" to every girl i met, singing in underground - to defeat the fear of public speaking. The very first thing i done after I decided to change my life, i went out on Waterloo and ask 10 girls to tell me to "f**k off". It really helped, becouse none of them actually wanted to do that, even after I started to do some hard kino on them. Also some stuff I was told to do for my development by russian PUA's, like that one:
You approach girl with a smile and tell her "blah-blah-blah, give me your number."
Funny enough, this friday I made 5 approaches and i got 4 numbers-close.
Also I practised opening groups of girls offering them to come to my place and have a group sex - this was really hard to do first time, but after i done it couple of times, I got to the point, were we had a chat for a half an hour, all the time laughing and stuff, but I didn't got number-close, which was my aim.

My goals

Whithin one year, I want to learn every aspect of social beahvior, and become a master of communications. Also I want to learn and practise everything about seduction. I'm trying to do it myself, but I need someone to show me the way.

How do I think to reach these goals ? And what am i perepared to do ?

I got some training materials from russian PUA's to kill my fears, and now I can tell that I seriously improved my inner game, motivation, become much more confident in every aspect of life, not just The Game. As you can read higher, I also kicked myself out of my circle of comfort zone and I keep doing it everyday. Everyday I have set of something I should complete by the end of the day.

So, the way i'm going to reach my goals is to work hard everyday. I don't now any other way you can achieve anything. And I'm prepared to kick myself out of comfort zone, becouse i already done it.

Why do I want to work with you ?

I'll be honest - just becouse you are supermoderator of this forum, and it is on the top of google page. This website is a business, and I believe, that you wouldn't stay were you are, if you don't worth anything. So I believe, I can learn from you.

Why should you choose me ?

Becouse I always going ahead in everything I do, and I learn from everyone, who does something good, whatever it is. So you can be sure, than every piece of advice and information you give me, going to be taken in, thinking over and put into practise.

Your story; who are you, how did you get to where you are today, what have you already studied?
My name is Kenny, I am 5’10 190, pretty athletic and not a bad looker. I am fresh out of the worst 4 years that is called high school. I am movin on to a fresh start with girls in general by movin to a whole different state. I was considered a very popular guy in high school but somehow I could never ever get any girl to hang out with me…they would NOT give me the time of day. I mean I don’t want to be a sex machine like many of the guys out there, I just want to be able to get girls interested enough to hang out with me and hopefully find one that is worth hanging on to. I plan on there being several crash and burns with the ones that I think are worth to hang on too, but every crash is a step towards the peak of the mountain of my gaming life.

I am where I’m at today simply because I am a people person. I tend to be the center of attention and thrive off of being noticed. Alright now I know what you are thinking, “How can you be a people person and the center of attention and not be able to get a girl?” Well that’s the problem! I am not sure what cool little notes I miss to cause all of this but it sucks pretty hard. What makes it even worse is that I am a person that people go to, to get relationship advice or advice to pick up women…but I can’t help myself!

I have studied The Game, Mystery Method and several posts on <a href="">PUA Forum</a>s. I haven’t quite toned in completely on my skills, so I’m hoping this will help me tremendously in the next chapter of my life.


Your goals; who do you want to be?
I want to be the guy that every girl wants. Sounds cocky, but it would be a complete 180 turn from now, pretty much like the change for the Million Dollar Man. My ultimate goal is to be able to get the skills to be able to get a girl to be willing to spend time with me away from the crowd and just go on a date. It almost seems as if they think they are too good to be hanging out with me.

How do you intend to reach these goals, what are you willing to do in order to accomplish them?
I intend on getting there by my hard work ethic and my willingness to try anything. I am willing to do just about anything. If I fail, the next time I try will be even better than the previous attempt.

Why do you want to work with me?
Well to be blunt, because you have the keys to open me up and change anything inside. Obviously you know what you are doing if myself, and other people are taking the time to fill this out in hopes to get the training.

And last, Why should I choose you, what makes you special and unique, why do you feel you'd be a good fit?
I’m not gonna say I deserve it more than the other guys, or that I’m completely better. I just think that with the right tools, I one day could be like you, helping AFC’s like me.

My attitude towards talking to woman. When I approach a HB one phrase is going in my mind.
"What are they gonna do? Not be my friend?"

I forgot to add this.

The reason I want this more than anything is because I want to go to bed at night knowing that a girl wants me as bad as I want them. I want to know that I will always have a person there.

"What are they gonna do? Not be my friend?"

Your story; who are you, how did you get to where you are today, what have you already studied?

I'm 22 years old. I have never really had a girlfriend and am pretty much a social hermit. I spent 2 years traveling the world as a professional poker player. My whole life was the game of poker, which consumed my life and caused me to foster antisocial behaviors. I became fed up with my introverted lifestyle and went back to community college last year, hoping to find a new more social lifestyle. Unfortunately, after one year, that hasn't worked out. The few girls I've talked to have all pretty much claimed they had boyfriends. The only one who gave me her number turned out to give me a fake number. It's been a very depressing life to say the least as these are supposed to be the best years of my life and yet I wake up everyday dreading what is to come.

Last year, my therapist mentioned this show about "a guy who helps losers pick up women." I thought the idea was pretty stupid at first and just ignored it. Then a few months ago, I struck out with another girl and decided to google what this show was. Of course, I was talking about "The Pickup Artist." I watched the show and found myself fascinated. I think I banged out both seasons plus all the extras in about 3 days. I couldn't help but think that these guys on the show were just like me and were transforming into better people every episode.

I actually sat there and took notes on each episode to try and help myself. I started researching pickup more and more and taking notes on everything. I'm still having problems with approach anxiety and opening, but I at least feel like I'm more knowledgeable than I was a few months ago. Now, I'm ready for success!

Your goals; who do you want to be?

Admittedly, I'm not really into nightclubs, even having started to learn this PUA stuff. I don't really like the environment there or the types of people who go there regularly. I just don't feel comfortable in that environment and I feel I never will, though I am fine with that as there are other places to meet people.

My goals through learning PUA is to be able to talk to anyone at anytime in any place, and not feel so threatened just by a pretty girl's presence. I want to meet the "right girl" and settle down with her. I'd like to be able to meet someone and enjoy an intimate relationship, something I've longed for but have never had reciprocated by another person.

How do you intend to reach these goals, what are you willing to do in order to accomplish them?

I could be like any guy and say I'm willing to do "anything" (if you say jump I say how high). However, I think that's not only facetious, I think it can be completely counterproductive. I think stepping out of your comfort zone is ok in small doses but there's a big difference between putting your feet in the water and diving in the deep end. You don't just throw an infant child learning to swim in 8 feet waters. You train him in the shallow end and let him grow into his own personal comfort level. I think teaching PUA and adapting it to your lifestyle is exactly the same.

I AM willing to step out of my comfort zone, but I will not compromise my values to do so, as I think that will simply lead to me falling into a rut again. I want to improve who I am, but I want to be able to enjoy who I become as well and not become something I hate. I think this is important for anyone looking to improve their game. It's not a matter of becoming like everyone else; it's a matter of finding what you like in those who are successful and adapting it to who you are and finding your own personal balance.

I may never want to be the guy who goes to the club every week, hits on 20 different girls, sleeps with one every night, and becomes "the life of the party." I don't think -- even with a knowledge of PUA from the best and a new sense of success -- that I could be happy doing that. However, that's not to say I would never go. I can take a chance if needed. I'm certainly willing to talk to more girls in school or in restaurants or whatever. I'll make sure to give 100% of my attention to anything taught to me, treat every word as if it's the gospel. But in the end, it's up to me to take those words and combine it with my values to become to person I strive to be.

Why do you want to work with me?

I can read forums and articles all day long. I can rewatch Mystery's lessons on "The PUA" and watch the successes and failures of his students to learn from. However, I feel my education needs a more personal touch if I ever hope to truly change. You can compare it to some workout freak in football. He can have all the tools and knowledge of the game but without a good coaching staff, even the best prospect's potential will never be fulfilled. I'm not calling myself a first round draft pick, but I'm smart and attentive and willing to absorb new information. With proper coaching, I think I can be a diamond in the rough and not a bust like many of those great prospects become without great coaching.


And last, Why should I choose you, what makes you special and unique, why do you feel you'd be a good fit?

I'm not like any guy you'll meet on here. While taking nothing away from anyone who comes on here willing to learn, most are looking to become something they are not and not adapt who they are with who they hope to become. In other words, I think too many people are just looking to becomes pickup robots and not improve who they are as men. They will not be able to enjoy the tools they learn because they didn't adapt the system to combine with their personal values. I'm making no mystery about this: I want to change, but I want to change into someone I can love to be, not change into someone completely different. If this turns you off, then consider it a deal breaker, but I think this is vital in any new student's success. I'll give you 100% effort and respect, but in the end, this journey is all about my progress and my life. I don't want to fall back into who I was. I think with your help I can become the guy other people want to be around while still being able to love myself. And with your guidance, I think my journey into manhood will take leaps ahead of where I ever thought I could be.

Thank you for the opportunity.
